1.     Those who possess the required qualification as on the last date of application (as on 21.07.2023`) and those candidates who are going to complete the required qualification in the academic year 2022-23 are also eligible to apply, provided final degree is available by 31.08.2023 and their aggregate is 60% marks or CGPA 6.5/10 for ME/M.Tech course and 65% or CGPA 6.84/10 for B.E/B.Tech/M.Sc./ course (average of all semesters for which results are available.

2.     M.E / M.Tech should be in First Class with an aggregate minimum of 60% marks (average of all semesters) or CGPA / CPI grading of a minimum of 6.5 on a 10 scale or equivalent.

3.     B.E / B.Tech / M.Sc should be in First Class with an aggregate minimum of 65% marks (average of all semesters) or CGPA / CPI grading of a minimum of 6.84 on a 10 scale or equivalent.

4.     B.Sc. should be in First Class with an aggregate minimum of 60% marks (average of all semesters) or CGPA / CPI grading of a minimum of 6.5 on a 10 scale or equivalent.

5.     Essential qualification (ie Post Graduation / Graduation) should have been completed within the stipulated duration of the course as prescribed by the University. Where a University mentions both CGPA / CPI and percentage of marks in its Degree Certificate or Consolidated Mark
sheet, then at least one criteria (either CGPA or percentage) should meet DOS/ISRO’s eligibility norms.

6.     Where a University mentions only CGPA / CPI in its Degree Certificate or Consolidated marksheet, then the CGPA / CPI so mentioned should necessarily meet DOS/ISRO’s eligibility criteria. Conversion of CGPA / CPI into percentage of marks is not permitted to determine eligibility, regardless of whether any conversion formula is prescribed by the University/Institution concerned. The same criteria apply mutatis mutandis in cases where only percentage of marks is mentioned in the Degree Certificate / Consolidated marksheet.

7.     Candidates possessing Degrees awarded by foreign universities should produce the equivalency certificate issued by the Association of Indian Universities (AIU), New Delhi, at the time of interview.

8.     For Post Nos. 1503 to 1512, the Centre of Posting is VSSC. For Post Nos. 1513 to 1520, the vacancies are scattered across multiple Centres as indicated above. Therefore, the candidates applying against post Nos. 1513 to 1520 are required to provide their order of preference in the Centre of posting.  However, the selected candidates are liable to be posted in any of the Centres/Units of the Indian Space Research Organisation / Department of Space situated anywhere in India as and when required.

9.     Persons with Benchmark Disability (PWBD) can apply for the posts suitable to them even if the post is not identified for them. However, such candidates will be considered for selection to such posts by general standard of merit. Persons suffering from not less than 40% of relevant disability shall alone be eligible for the benefit of age relaxation as permissible under rules.
